Assistant Principal: Monica Goree

River’s Edge Family,

I
am pleased to be able to serve as the assistant principal at River’s
Edge Elementary School. Many of you may know me as I have been an
educator at REES for many, many years. Therefore, you can feel confident
that I will bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the nature and
the needs of the students, staff, and parents at our wonderful school.

I
am delighted to continue in the quest to assist in taking River’s Edge
to the next level. With that said, I am committed to ensuring that the
school is a safe and orderly environment that is conducive to rigorous
and relevant learning. I’m excited about the transition to the Common
Core Georgia Performance Standards which will ensure that our children
will be successful and ready for global competition in the future! I
will also work to ensure that our school is a clean facility that we can
be proud of…REES is our home. I will assist in making it feel that way!

I
encourage all parents to help support the vision for REES and volunteer
in school because working together makes the task of educating our
young, much more manageable. Let’s continue to set high expectations for
our students that involve having excellent study habits, completing
class and homework assignments, and using self-control at all times.

I
look forward to working with each of you this school year. If I can be
of any assistance, please do not hesitate to ask. My door will be open.
I’m ready to work. I’m ready to listen. I’m ready to do what’s best for
our students; so therefore, I’m ready for another productive year that
promises to be a success!
